Last night's episode AND last week's episode, the Pit Stop greeter said 'goodbye' to one of the teams in the country's respective language. I don't know if producers have asked greeters to do this to make things more cultural, OR it could be a possible memory task for the final Leg ('goodbye' in every language of every country you visited on the racer), thoughts?

I'm really impressed that BVM was able to get the proper permissions. IIRC only The Translator has received permits for filming on U.N. property; even Hitchcock had to film NxNW guerilla-style.

The Australian version of Masterchef filmed the introduction for a team challenge (which featured most if not all of the UN ambassadors) inside the General Assembly Hall, with the judges behind the lectern.

I think Lexi has incorrectly put Tot Ziens and Zai Jian under the Bangladeshi flag. The words under the Chinese and Indonesian flags should also be wrong. Beekman will probably do better at this, but I'm not sure about the Chips.

I see that the lower one of the sign on the China flag is correct for Hello in Chinese "Ni Hao", but probably the one above is wrong since "Zai Jian" is Goodbye in Chinese, I think the producers may even make it harder if teams have to arrange Hello and Goodbye at top and down position precisely.

no surprise, the racers are at the Chateau and Gardens of Villandry, Loire Valley, France. (the sign behind them says so... lol)

Consider the possibility that it is not Villandry you are looking at, but Chenonceau instead. The sign could be merely a poster advertising events in mid June at Villandry under a cooperative advertising effort.

I have looked at 48 photos of various parts of Chateau Villandry and have not seen anything that matches what is shown.

Consider the possibility that it is not Villandry you are looking at, but Chenonceau instead......

ummm....no, I wont. We think TAR visited Chateau Villandry because the gardens are shown in the opening title sequence of every episode this season. Ever think they went to more than one chateau? Let's all wait while you dig up a picture of Chenonceau that matches the racers running.
